HALLS CATARRH CURE.

There is more catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For great many years doctors pro-
nounced it local disease and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly failing to cure with local treat
ment pronounced it incurable. Science
has proven catarrh to be a constitu-
tional disease, and therefore it requires
a constitutional treatment. Halls Ca
tarrh Cure, manufactured by F. j..
Cheney Il Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the
only constitutional cure now on the
market. 1t is taken internally in doses
from ten drops to tea-spoonful. 1t
acts directly upon the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system. They offer one
hundred dollars for any case it fails to
cure. Send for circular and testi-
monials. Address

friends and acluaintsDces Of Tommy
Jones, to learn that he has jumped the
town on account of being short in his
accounts; such is the fact.
SlDce April last, Tommy has been In
the Employ of John H. Werner, the car
pet desler and decorator at No. 36 East
TUscaTawas street, as collector and
bOOkkeeper. he was always faithful In
the discharge Of his duties and no fanlt

Saturday, Jones was released, s5 the

that 1t would not pay him to retain q
regular collector. Jones was by no
means discharged, and Mr.. Werner had
no suspicion whatever, but that every.
thing was all right.
Last Tuesday Jones left the city and
has not been seen or heard Of since.
Shortly after HE departure, Mr..
Harry Arment, the book keeper
went out to collect few old
bills and was surprised to find that
Jones had collected and receipted them,
without making any return to Mr.. Wer-
ner. The extent Of Jones' deficit cannot
now be given but it Is sufficiently large.
Jones was paid good salary but it 10
said he lived beyond 1t, thus causing
him to use funds not his own.
Jones always bore good reDU-

expecting to replace 1t, and never was
